You have to understand the nature of light.

It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.

I can understand why people get annoyed at being remembered for one thing, but a lot of actors aren't remembered for anything. I don't mind that.
When you lose a parent, you realize how vital they are to the foundation of your life. It's impossible to understand what it means until that curtain is pulled. You're an orphan.

It would be very discouraging if somewhere down the line you could ask a computer if the Riemann hypothesis is correct and it said, 'Yes, it is true, but you won't be able to understand the proof.'
Not all is doom and gloom. We are beginning to understand the natural world and are gaining a reverence for life - all life.
If you ask me what I worry about every morning when I wake up, it's that I don't understand future mainstream Internet users' habits.
I was always very aware of the nature of the place where I was growing up in Gulfport, Mississippi, how that place was shaping my experience of the world. I had to go to the Northeast for graduate school because I felt like I had to get far away from my South, be outside it, to understand it.
I've been in a band, so I understand the politics. Sometimes the bass player doesn't like what the guitar player is doing, and you have to sort of even that out.

I routinely failed to understand that 'simple and straightforward' would have been a much better product strategy for Lotus.
